## Gatha 634-649
**Samyaktvam Maganga / 667**
Only an innumerable part of the Avali receives the projection rods. When the duration of the non-virtuous Samyakdrishti is multiplied by the innumerable part of the Avali, the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishti is obtained.
Multiplying the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishti by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti living beings. This is because the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti is innumerable times less than the duration of the non-virtuous Samyakdrishti.
Multiplying the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishti living beings. This is because the duration of the Sasadan Samyakdrishti is innumerable times greater than the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti. Alternatively, only an innumerable part of the living beings who attain the Mithyatva-Gunasthan attain the Sasadan Samyakdrishti Gunasthan. Therefore, the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishti is also innumerable times greater than the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti.
Dividing the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishti by the innumerable part of the Avali and adding one part of it to the same duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishti gives the duration of the non-virtuous Samyakdrishtis of the Saudharma and Aishana heavens. Multiplying this by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishtis of the Saudharma and Aishana heavens. This is because there is a difference between the duration of the Samyakdrishtis and the Mithyadrishtis. Multiplying the duration of the Mithyadrishtis by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishtis of the Saudharma and Aishana heavens. This is because there is a difference between the duration of the Mithyadrishtis and the Sasadan Samyakdrishtis. Alternatively, there is a difference in the number of living beings who attain these two Gunasthanas.
Multiplying the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishtis of the Saudharma and Aishana heavens by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishtis of the Manatkumar and Maheindra heavens. This is because due to the abundance of good karma, not many living beings are born there. Similarly, this should be extended to the Tar-Sahasrar Kalpa.
Multiplying the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishtis of the Tar-Sahasrar Kalpa by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishtis of the Jyotishis. This is because there is a strong influence of those living beings who are born with Vyudgrahit etc. Mithyatva and who attain Samyaktvam in the heavens that are against the Jinasasana.
Multiplying the duration of the virtuous non-virtuous Samyakdrishti Jyotishis by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Mithyadrishti Jyotishis. Multiplying this by the innumerable part of the Avali gives the duration of the virtuous Sasadan Samyakdrishti Jyotishis. Similarly, the duration of the Varnantantar and Bhavanvasi Devas should be calculated in sequence. This is because it is not possible for many Samyakdrishtis to be born in those who have their vision covered by Mithyatva.
